Hmmmm....something to think about

To be honest I have not taken note of the ACLU in my city (Columbus, OH). I have gravitated towards organizations whose main focus is my community (read: Black people). I've been so occupied with the apathy and infighting of some of "our" organizations (i.e. NAACP) and how they represent us that I haven't taken the time to examine how other organizations operate. I have come across a couple of articles regarding the ACLU and some of the battles they've engage in but they are all pertaining to the rights of prisoners (those convicted and sent to jail).

Ladygreek----do you feel like "our" issues aren't being addressed because our numbers aren't there when it comes to membership?
I can probably count on one hand the Black people I know that contribute to the ACLU.
